Suicide Prevention Strategies for Improving Population Health - 13/03/16

Résumé |
Suicide is a public health problem that accounts for more than 1 million deaths annually worldwide. This article addresses evidence-based and promising youth suicide prevention approaches at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels. Coordinated, developmentally timed, evidence-based suicide prevention approaches at all intervention levels are likely to reduce youth suicide. For most youth who die by suicide, there are opportunities for intervention before imminent risk develops. Current research in suicide prevention points to the value of investing in “upstream” universal interventions that build skills and resilience as well as policies that enable access to care and protection from lethal means.
